No problem to commit them before 7.1 release, but they will not available with 
release ports/packages since portstree for 7.1 has been tagged already.

Submit them and one of committers will take care about them.

Some notes for kdenlive port. It installs some mime files, which need special 
handling in Makefile and pkg-plist (You can look at databases/akonadi for 
example). 

Firstly, you need 'sharedmime' component for KDE4:

USE_KDE4=	kdeprefix kdehier automoc4 sharedmime

Secondly, don't allow to run shared-mime utilities when building/installing 
port (otherwise port will fail on pointyhat/tinderbox):

post-patch:
	#prevent updating mime during build
	${REINPLACE_CMD} -e '/^update_xdg_mimetypes/d; /SharedMimeInfo/d' \
		${PATCH_WRKSRC}/CMakeLists.txt

instead, run utility manually in post-install target:

post-install:
	@-update-mime-database ${KDE4_PREFIX}/share/mime

Finally, add the following two lines to pkg-plist (they will be executed on 
installing/deinstalling package):

@exec %%LOCALBASE%%/bin/update-mime-database %D/share/mime > /dev/null || 
/usr/bin/true
@unexec %%LOCALBASE%%/bin/update-mime-database %D/share/mime > /dev/null || 
/usr/bin/true

Also, you shouldn't delete common directories like share/config or share/icons 
in plist (btw, most common dirs are installed by kdehier port). You can use 
@dirrmtry for them.
